教師のビリーフが自律的な学習姿勢に及ぼす影響―職能成長への示唆―

本研究は，教師のビリーフが自律的な学習姿勢に及ぼす影響について検討した。公立小学校の現職教員へ質問紙調査を行い，77 名から回答を得た。教師の自律的な学習姿勢については，既存尺度に基づき「同僚の経験の取り入れ」，「児童・保護者の視点の考慮」，「前向きな挑戦姿勢」，「自己省察」の 4 つの側面を測定した。教師のビリーフについては，因子分析により「学校教育の理想像」，「規律重視」，「権威志向」の 3 つの側面を表す因子を抽出した。相関分析の結果では，「学校教育の理想像」ビリーフが自律的な学習姿勢の各側面と正の関連を示した。また交互作用項を含む重回帰分析の結果，「学校教育の理想像」が学習姿勢に及ぼす効果は，「規律重視」ビリーフに調整されることが示された。すなわち，「規律重視」が高い場合にのみ，「学校教育の理想像」は学習姿勢を促進していた。得られた知見を基に，教師の職能成長に関する示唆を考察した。

This study examined the effects of teachers’ beliefs on their autonomous learning attitudes. A questionnaire survey administered to in-service teachers in Japanese public elementary schools received 77 responses. The following four aspects of teachers’ autonomous learning attitudes were measured using scales based on previous findings: “incorporating colleagues’ experiences,” “considering children’s and parents’ perspectives,” “challenging attitude,” and “self-reflection.” Concerning teachers’ beliefs, three factors were extracted through a factor analysis: “ideal vision of school education,” “emphasis on discipline,” and “authority orientation.” The correlation analyses showed that the belief concerning the “ideal vision of school education” was positively related to each aspect of an autonomous learning attitude. Additionally, multiple regression analyses using interaction terms revealed that the positive effect of the “ideal vision of school education” belief on an autonomous learning attitude was moderated by the “emphasis on discipline” belief. That is, the “ideal vision of school education” only promoted autonomous learning attitudes when the “emphasis on discipline” belief was strong. Implications regarding the professional growth of teachers were discussed.
